Truly Dreadful Film

Gripping story with well-crafted characters

Far from Perfect, Far from Terrible

A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

A pickpocket extraordinnaire is on the loose and the Inspector feels he can trap the criminal by flashing money around at a bar. He must have a sixth sense of where criminals are located because the pickpocket - who has four arms - is right there and quickly lifts his money. That money belonged to our buddy Deux- Deux, but there is some story involved with the cash. Deux-Deux tries to tell his boss something about it a couple of times but is always cut off. We find out at the end.Meanwhile, the shifty pickpocket seems to everywhere the Inspector is and has no trouble lifting almost everything Our Hero owns! Clouseau seems to have a nose to where to flush out the thief, or is it the opposite - the thief tracking him?Overall, a "fair" episode, somewhat entertaining but not particularly funny. It's on the DVD "The Pink Panther Classic Cartoon Collection, Vol. 6 - Inspector Cartoons."
